Szymon Kaliski

I make ambient music from deconstructed acoustic sounds.

My tracks are intentionally filled with imperfections, full of cracks suspended in slowed down soundscapes. Compositions are always born from acoustic sounds — looped, decayed and reconstructed.

My releases were warmly received by press. I was compared to artists such as William Basinski, Eluvium, or Taylor Deupree.

If you enjoy listening to good music, you should buy this album; if you're interested in thinking through the ways in which sound and place make each other meaningful, you've even more reason to do so.– Fluid Radio
[Kaliski] takes pieces from all the greats, lots of vintage Jeckian crackle, subtle glitches like Hecker, some Basinski melancholy, and Deupree style processed minimalism, all while not sounding too much like any one of them.– Anti Gravity Bunny
